    FAQs

    Hvordan påfører jeg clip-in hair extensions sikkert?

    For å påføre clip-in hair extensions sikkert, start med å seksjonere håret horisontalt, og etterlate et tynt lag i nakken. Ert røttene av håret litt der klipsene skal festes med vår pintail comb For å gi et bedre grep. Åpne klipsene på forlengelsen og klikk dem godt på plass. Gjenta denne prosessen mens du jobber oppover, og sørg for at hvert stykke blander seg sømløst med ditt naturlige hår.

    Hvilken type clip-in extensions er best for fint hår?

    For fint hår, lette alternativer som vår seamless clip ins Er ideelle fordi de gir volum uten å være for tunge. Deres ekstra tynne søm er i stand til å legge seg flatt på fint hår, noe som gjør dem ekstra diskrete.

    Kan jeg bruke varmeverktøy på Cliphair clip-in extensions?

    Ja, du kan bruke varmeverktøy på Cliphair clip-in extensions da de er laget av 100 % menneskehår. Vi anbefaler imidlertid å bruke ut heat protection spray Og hold temperaturen på stylingverktøyene under 180°C eller på middels varme for å forhindre skade og opprettholde levetiden til extensionsene dine.

    Hvordan velger jeg riktig nyanse for utvidelsene mine?

    For å velge riktig nyanse for extensions, match fargen til mellomlengdene og endene av ditt naturlige hår i stedet for røttene. Hvis du er usikker, tilbyr vi en gratis ekspress colour-matching service Hvor du kan sende et bilde av håret ditt for ekspertråd.

    Hva er forskjellen mellom single og doble weft extensions?

    Single weft extensions består av ett lag hår festet til klipsene, noe som gjør dem lettere og mer egnet for fint eller tynt hår. Doble weft extensions har to lag med hår sydd sammen, og gir mer tykkelse og volum, noe som gjør dem ideelle for middels til tykke hårtyper.
